Designing with Integrity, Building on Trust

Albert Lea Fire & Rescue

The City of Albert Lea commissioned Brunton Architects & Engineers to design their new 25,560 sf precast fire / rescue facility in early 2018. The project is currently in design and boasts 12 apparatus bays, a large 1,200 sf training room, emergency operations center (EOC), offices, combination hose/training tower, second floor living quarters for six full time fire fighters, fitness room, locker rooms for both full time fire fighters and Paid On Call (POC) fire fighters, pressurized SCBA room, and laundry facilities. One unique feature of this building is the LED lighting system that spreads across its exterior facade. The lights on the building will alternate colors from white to red to alert you that an apparatus is soon to be leaving the station.
